Giants vote unanimously to ratify CBA, free agents return to practice

William Perlman/The Star-LedgerGiants right tackle Kareem McKenzie is the player representative.

The Giants practiced at 6 p.m. this evening with everyone under contract in attendance at practice — including those who have not practiced because of league rules. They could now join, though, because the CBA has been ratified. The Giants voted unanimously to ratify in a meeting today, according to player representative Kareem McKenzie.

"It was a deal that was equitable for all parties included and we felt it was a good deal for ourselves," McKenzie said.

"That's something that was on the part of the NFL, and the NFLPA as a collective deciding on what, how and what all the ramifications," McKenzie said. "It's not a definitive science from what I've heard and what I know right now. So we really don't want to get up in the maybes of it."
